Summary of Research and ELP Activities

SERMSS BULLETIN No.15 March 2015

平成 26 年度後半は、協力関係のある国内外の 3 大学から講師を招き特別講義を実施した。聴講形式の講義にとらわれない対話式の講義形態を含み、第一線にて活躍する研究者からの専門知識の習得だけではなく、聴講側の学生間のコミュニケーションも加味され、充実した特別講義となった。
From late 2014 to early March 2015, three special lectures were provided by specialists from 3
different universities in China, Malaysia, and Japan. Some lectures were much more interactive
compared to conventional special lectures which focus on the one-way style. The lectures
included chances to communicate between students that made the lectures more valuable.

本賞は、天皇陛下の御即位 20 年に当たり、社会的に厳しい経済環境の中で、勉学や研究に励んでいる若手研究者を支援・奨励するための事業の資として、陛下から御下賜金を賜り、このような陛下のお気持ちを受けて、将来、我が国の学術研究の発展に寄与することが期待される優秀な大学院博士後期課程学生を顕彰することで、その勉学及び研究意欲を高め、若手研究者の養成を図ることを目的に平成 22 年度に創設したものです。（JSPS公式ウェブサイトより引用）* JSPS Ikushi Prize
In 2009, JSPS received an endowment from Emperor Akihito on the 20th year of his reign. Amidst a severe
economic environment in Japanese society, His Majesty’s desire was to encourage and support young
scientists who are working diligently to advance their studies and research. In deference to his wishes,
JSPS established the Ikushi Prize program and placed it into operation in FY 2010. It functions to formallyrecognize outstanding doctoral students who can be expected to contribute to Japan’s future scientificadvancement. (quoted by JSPS website)
